Yesterday morning when i went over to dad’s place to check out what he’s doing i found him lying on the couch and saying he can barely speak, he’s dizzy, and his heart hurts.
I called the ambulance and they took him to the hospital in the ER room.
He’s been coughing for about a year, everyone in the family told him to go to the doctors and check it out, he even had an appointment at a friend of his, but noo he was the smartass who said he’s fine.
The chief nurse jumped me saying how could i let him get that bad(he looks almost like a skeleton, he’s gotten so thin because of his lungs) so i told her that i couldn’t bring him to the hospital, the only way i could have brought him in would have been if i would have knocked him out with a bat.
At 8PM they transfered him to the hospital to Intensive Care. I talked to the doctors and they say he has severe Tuberculosis and some other lungs disease meaning that his lungs are filled with pus, and his blood got infected also.
Yesterday he was very unstable, but over night they stabilized him, entubed him and he’s getting very powerful antibiotics. They’ve also perforated both of his lungs to get the pus out and they keep him asleep 24/24.
His shape is very bad, and he did this to himself with extensive smoking and drinking. They say his chances of survival are low(now that he’s stabilized they are bigger), i will find out more in 48 hours, because tomorrow he will be checked out by a doc expert in lungs.
If he survives he will stay in the hospital for a very very long time, and he won’t be allowed to smoke or drink for the rest of his life.
Lets hope for the best and hope that he will survive.
In the following days if i won’t post regurarely its because i’m taking care of stuff at hospital.
Edit: He died wednesday at 6:45AM. Rest in peace.
The funeral took place friday.
